"Futurist" is an album released in 2005 by Alec Empire. It is the follow up to 2001's "Intelligence and Sacrifice" and is notable for the fact that the use of electronics for which Empire is famed is reduced in favour of guitars and drum beats, giving the album more of a punk/metal sound than its predecessor.
